June 2021 Product Updates

Layers is on a mission to become the #1 CRM platform for 3d printing businesses. This month, we’ve made important updates to get closer. Now let’s review!

 

Comments

Having conversations with customers about their files and orders is one of the most important tasks of 3D printing workshops. Conversations like these usually take place via phone calls, instant messengers, or via email, so it is difficult to attach them to the order. Attaching these conversations to orders and 3D files allows staff to be informed of orders more quickly and efficiently.

In 3D printing orders, each 3d model usually has to be examined separately. In many cases, there is also a need to communicate directly with the customer about a specific 3D file. For example, suppose that all the parts of an order are prepared except for a specific item and you want to talk to that customer about that particular file.

Comments allow you to engage in a conversation on the back of a 3d order. To view the back of a card (a 3D model), click on the card to open it. 

When you or your customers comment on a card you see a yellow circle on that order and are notified about that comment. This feature helps you to fund new comments and conversations.

 

Comments are available now in Business and Enterprise plans.

May 2021 Product Updates

Welcome to Layers.app Product Spotlight.

The following are some of the features and tools now available to you in May 2021. Please drumroll 🥁🥁

 

Bulk mode

A 3D printing order usually includes several parts. To order a 3D printed prototype of a bicycle, you must inspect the wheels, the body, and the other individual parts separately and bulk upload is very useful in this kind of order.

 

Bulk Mode - Layers.app

 

you can drag and drop all of your 3d models into the upload page and Layers automatically open several quotation boxes for each 3d model.
this feature helps users who need to compare 3d models’ price quotations.

In the Enterprise and Business plans, this feature is available.

 

Custom User Journey 

For many 3D printing companies, it is a common objective to contact users who upload 3D files but do not place an order.

To accomplish this, you must force the user to register before uploading. Registration before uploading a file may help you convert unconverted users to paying users, but it also repels many visitors who prefer not to share their email addresses.

We can say that this is a trade-off: Do you want to generate more leads or do you want to focus on ordering online?

 

From this month in the Business and Enterprise plan, you can change the user path: upload without registration, pre-upload registration and post-upload registration 3D file.
